PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- Without a pandemic quarantine, we'd never be able to enjoy the splendor that is @ratemyskyperoom on Twitter.
The popular account has amassed more than 400,000 followers since it started "rating bookcases, backsplashes and hostage videos since April, 2020."
Ratemyskyperoom gave KDKA's very own Jon Delano a 7 out of 10 rating in a surprise tweet Friday.
"Good use of space," the tweet read. "We are pro rocking chair. Tough lighting. 7/10."
